I would just like to say that Peter's passing has left an
empty space in my heart. He was a big part of us coming up
here to oregon, and he was and always will be a part of our
family. Although we haven't seen him in many years, we'll
miss him dearly. I hope you have a peaceful trip Peter, and
may you find that perfect commune in the sky,
love,
The Eatons.

Peter, your body is neatly folded and put away
Your Hopes and Fears recorded to CD
Your cherished thoughts and concepts meticulously filed
Finally, some clarity.
You thought you had it together;
a single bubble trapped under wreckage
miles below the surface of the ocean of love.
The tide has turned and the bubble burst into many
tiny bubbles. Do not worry, Do not fear.
They will return to you, it is a law of physics,
But only after a good look.
Do not worry, You are loved.
Do not fear, You are loved.
I will miss your uniqueness on earth
I revel in your uniqueness now.

Kaddish
Glorified and sanctified be God's great name throughout the world which He has created according to His will. May He establish His kingdom in your lifetime and during your days, and within the life of the entire House of Israel, speedily and soon; and say, Amen.
May His great name be blessed forever and to all eternity.
Blessed and praised, glorified and exalted, extolled and honored, adored and lauded be the name of the Holy One, blessed be He, beyond all the blessings and hymns, praises and consolations that are ever spoken in the world; and say, Amen.
May there be abundant peace from heaven, and life, for us and for all Israel; and say, Amen.
He who creates peace in His celestial heights, may He create peace for us and for all Israel; and say, Amen.

Leah, Nina, Melina, and Miriam...
You know we all share Alice's thoughts and feelings. Some
words printed on a page will not do justice to your father
and how he touched the lives of others, my family included.
If it were possible, we would all have been there to send
him off to the next stage of his journey....
It's at these times we reflect back...kinda take stock in
what was and what will be. I myself think about those days
back then when we were little hippie kids running around.
We never hung around alot together...you guys ( Leah and
Nina ) being little girls and I and my brother ( Patrick )
being punk boys. I do believe I had a crush on you Leah, but
please don't hold that against me! I remember me and my
friend Marc Bottenstein ( he lived right there on Browntown
road, the one that goes by the Holland store )would talk
about you girls and whether or not "you liked us"....
It's strange trying to remember when we went from those
hippie kids to.....not being those hippie kids. What I mean
is, I can't place when that changed. It was just the passage
of time of course, but there is no clear cut memory of when
that was and when it wasn't. Life took us on our own paths
and we just naturally drifted apart and went on to do our
own things, but I'm glad we are able to share some memories
together. When you think about it, we kids had a truly
unique childhood, one that not many kids got to experience.
Once again I thank your father for that opportunity. I wish
you all the very best, and hope life shines it's magic on
you and yours forever....
Peace.

Sunnyridge still seems so fresh and so it's hard to think of Peter, so young, dying.
He was a large part of the glue that held SR together. He kept the place functioning, but got frustrated with the likes of me whose do your thing, thing meant being lazy and watching people like him work. I remember him coming by early one morning trying to wake up us lazy stoners for a wood run.
I didn't mean to be a slacker, I was just too freaked by life, and had mountains of weird shit to work out. In spite of everything do your thing actually kinda worked.
Later on working at the recycling company I became the Peter pushing all to work for the good of work.
I'm looking forward to seeing him up there, whenever, (but I hope not too soon).

k, I know this is kind of off the subject of the picture which is really great you guys sound like you really miss him...but I was reading throught the comments and I was wondering who Alice was. I mean I heard of Alice's Kitchen and was wondering if that had anything to do with it, if so what exactly is it? I've heard of it but never really knew what exactly it was. Please help.
